She was a beautiful soul whose quiet, humble and loving presence made a mark on and inspired many hearts during her dash. She would not want you to be sad that she was no longer physically with us. She would want you to live happily, dance, laugh, sing and remember her fondly when you do so, as she was such a gift to those that her spirit touched.
